Bob's Game is a personal project developed by one person.
This person, Robert Pelloni, started developing Bob's Game when he was 20 years old.
He's know 25 years old, and has finally completed the project. Pelloni spent over 15,000 hours working on this game!

Quoted from About:

All concepts, story, code, sprites, tiles, music, samples,
fonts, etc. were created entirely from scratch by me-
and I had to teach myself the skills as I went along.

The code is straight C, the music is tracked, and the art is all
completely hand-clicked tiles and sprites- done the right way,
pixel by pixel, like the classics we all know and love.

As far as we know, there is no current release date scheduled.
The developer is still looking for a publisher, and it could probably be a while before a release date is announced.
